Gaiety Galaxy owner questions Akshay Kumar for attending Kapil Sharma’s show repeatedly

Manoj Desai, the owner of Mumbai’s Gaiety Galaxy, has slammed actor Akshay Kumar for appearing on ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’ frequently and has asked him to limit his annual releases to two films, instead of the usual four to five releases that he has.

Speaking with Filmi Fever, he shared his fear over the failure of Akshay’s films in the recent past. Responding to the poor box office performance of ‘Selfiee’, Manoj said the makers should have started advance booking for the film from Monday, and not Thursday. He added that when advance bookings open late public presumes that the film is not good enough.

‘Akshay Kumar should not feature in four-five films per year. You were on Kapil's show recently, what did you get? He just needs to earn his money and Sony pays him for fooling people and ,making them laugh. But why do you visit the show so frequently? Have you invested in the show? That is Salman Khan's show, why do you have to go there? Public has told me that they don't find it fit for Akshay to visit that show so frequently?,’ he said.

Manoj Desai is also the executive director of Mumbai's iconic Maratha Mandir theatre and the G7 multiplex.

Earlier this week, Akshay admitted that it is his fault if his films have not been working. In an interview with Aaj Tak, he said that it is an alarm for actors to reinvent themselves if their three or four films do not work in a row.
